CodeHouse: Maybe not but according to him baby coders can do it. Maybe he didn't get, he has to build and post. |

silento:This is an application that requires domain knowledge. So the complexity is'nt in the concept but understanding the concept enough to model it in code. E.g i think mp3, mp4 and video files, require knowledge of signal processing, and linear algebra to really understand what's going on under the hoood. (correct me where i'm wrong). It's not something some one who read a book on how to program in a language can just do. How it moves from a file to something you watch/hear. Creating autocad or 3d maya would be hard for those without domain knowledge. and still hard for those who do - because of the huge time cost to create (man-years). 1 Like |

Knownpal: as I said before we peace not war if u think it is as easy as u said plz create a thread let people who are interested start rubbing mind and let's teach each other things note : Api is good but not as good as knowing what you are doing I know python and c and c ++ not a hello world level but to a core level I hope you know what that means c programmers don't just use library they will always make sure they explore it and build a better one waiting for the thread |

This obsession with OOP, I just wonder sometimes. So, if a program isn't OOP, it no longer has muscle enough to complete a task again? Anyway, I was bored and tired of working on my other projects. So, I decided I would use a little bit of my time to take on this challenge, since I have never done anything like this before. Forgive me while I break the rules a little and use a non-OOP language. I'm just doing this for fun. It's a bash script, you can check it out on my github. https://github.com/vcnwosu/clean-desktop |

Well done you guys. Please, I want to know the programming language I can use to build a software that can visit a site on its own. For example, if I have a word document full of domain names, the software should copy the first domain, head down to estibot dot com and appraise the domain, then move back to the word document and paste the value by the side of the domain. The software should then move to the next domain on the word document and on and on until the last domain. I have a little knowledge of c#(console application and Windows form application). I think I can get things going if I know where to start from. I will welcome whatever solution any one can come up with, whatever platform. I just need someone to tell me where to start from |

deedat205: You can use most programming languages for that. Just check about creating Http requests with that language. for example, in C#, it would look something like this WebRequest request = WebRequest.Create(theUrl); request.Method = "GET"; Stream dataStream = request.GetRequestStream(); Console.WriteLine(((HttpWebResponse)response).StatusDescription); dataStream = response.GetResponseStream(); StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(dataStream); string responseFromServer = reader.ReadToEnd(); //THEN YOU CAN DISPLAY THE RESPONSE FROM THE responseFromServer variable. reader.Close(); dataStream.Close(); response.Close(); Then just use the above code in a thread and loop through the doc |

larisoft: OP, larisoft clean desktop solved most of your requirements before you even posted this challenge. Myself and larisoft are not *coughs* best *cough cough* of *clears throat * friends. But I respect his world even though we don't see eye to eye |

For those that are considering copying every file in a folder and subfolder and recreating that folder structure in the new location. You really do not need to stress yourself to right such function (if you don't like stress). There is an xcopy command on cmd, it has the ability to copy a full folder. I once used it to copy the whole System32 folder to another partition. So you can use xcopy c:\users\FincoApps\site_files c:\users\FincoApps\WWW\ Then to run cmd commands in C#, use System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo cmd = new System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo("cmd.exe", "/c THE COMMAND HERE " I use this method to do a lot of tasks that are ridiculously difficult without breaking a sweat |

Well as regards moving web pages I don't think is difficult because even when u move d html alone it's folder will follow it... If u copy or cut like shopping.html alone to a folder both shopping.html and shopping folder containing other files will be copied that is go into d folder at the same time... |

Full version of CleanDesktop is ready now. This app, which simply keeps your desktop free of cluttering files, by moving every file to its appropriate folder has the following features: 1. starts by itself once system boots 2. Allows you to create custom extension 3. ALlows you to send commands to the application through the command line 4. Moves html files together with their resource folders. 5. It is open source and newbies and pros alike are welcome to modify, reuse, and criticize the code. Plus you can look at the code and see there's no shady deal going on behind the scenes...e.g. hidden viruses. github link: https://github.com/larisoft/cleanDesktop app download link: http://tfellow.com/cleandesktop.zip cc: oga seunthomas, fincoapps, olumyco, donjayzi, knownpal, Danielthegeek, ,dammytosh, elfico, airsalongcon, diakon, dhtml18, pcguru, airsalangu, guru08 e.t.c.
